How to Improve Proper Noun Recognition in Deepgram Transcriptions

To improve the recognition of proper nouns in Deepgram transcriptions, consider using smart formatting, keyword boosting, or custom model training.

Keyword boosting allows you to specify words for the model to focus on, especially useful for out-of-vocabulary terms like product names and industry-specific jargon. More details: Keyword Boosting Documentation.

Smart formatting enhances transcript readability and handles abbreviations, alphanumerics, emails, and currency well. For uncommon names and places, custom model training is beneficial.

Custom model training uses audio, verified transcripts, and important keywords to tailor an ASR model to your specific needs, improving overall transcription accuracy and the recognition of names and named entities.
